Want another liberal commencement speaker story?
My commencement speaker was former NOW president Patricia Ireland. For some background, I attended a private woman's college that did not pay its commencement speakers.
All the hag did was drone on about herself. She never mentioned the graduates, who happened to be the reason everybody, including herself, was present.
She had the poor taste to talk about the first time she attempted to obtain birth control, as if I wanted to know it. Needless to say, the overt pot-shots at conservatives were also made.
Even the crazy butch feminists in the class wanted her to shut up.
I'm sorry you had to deal with a pompus a$$ for a speaker.
Luckily my grad speaker was George Bush the elder. He was great! No politics, he gave an upbeat look ahead speach! (1997)
